Terminal Gate Pricing Information

Terminal operators must notify a spot price for each fuel type they sell and each component of that price in accordance with the Terminal Gate Price (TGP) formula according to the Petroleum Products Pricing (Maximum Terminal Gate Price Order) 2002.

These prices then become the maximum price that a spot purchaser can be charged for a spot purchase where delivery is taken at the terminal gate. The TGP prices do not include post terminal gate services such as delivery, branding and credit facilities etc.

Resellers (i.e. retailers and distributors) of fuel who wish to purchase on the spot market at these TGP prices should contact the respective terminal for details of availability and supply arrangements. Contact details and/website links for the various terminal operators are provided via FuelWatch.

The Petroleum Products Pricing Act 1983 (WA) governs purchases under the TGP. Accordingly, some conditions of sale stipulated by the companies may not apply.   Website links for the various terminal operators are provided below. 

• BP
• Shell
• Caltex
• Gull
• Mobil

TGP increases transparency in the wholesale fuel market - providing eligible retailers and distributors with comparative prices (between oil companies) allowing them to make informed decisions about their wholesale fuel purchases. As TGP prices are available daily on the FuelWatch website, consumers, retailers and distributors are able to see what the 'base' price of the different fuel products are at any time. Consumers are also able to establish the level of margins between the TGP and the final retail price.
